It was probably a good thing that the special Housing Zone change was not passed by the Wallingford Town Council Tuesday evening. Everyone seems to have a rather different idea of what it might accomplish, and we should have more definition before enacting something of this kind.
It appears that a good many of the present workers at Pratt & Whitney plants in Cheshire and East Hartford are electing to accept the buyout offer reached a couple of weeks ago. With 469 out of the 500 anticipated, the job of figuring out which jobs will go where will be simplified.
Fixing the Meriden water filtration plant at Broadbrook will be more expensive than anticipated but should fix the taste problem that many have complained about. Remember that a clean public water supply is the single most important element of public health.
Word that the next Great Connecticut Jazz Festival will have to wait until July of 2012, due to a slight drop in attendance which made backers reluctant to schedule another event so soon. It will be all the more eagerly awaited at the Four Points, Meriden, in a year and a half.
